http://shetakesontheworld.com/superhuman-entrepreneur1/#commentsWed, 23 Nov 2016 11:00:09 +0000http://shetakesontheworld.com/?p=16896Today we’re beginning a very special new series of She Takes on the World TV, that’s unlike anything I’ve ever shared with you before.

I was inspired to create this series after the launch of my book The Conquer Kit, which was published at the tail end of a 6-month period of massive growth in my business. Feeling more drained and burnt out than I had felt in a really long time, I was finding it difficult to even pull myself out of bed and start the workday in the morning. It actually scared me because I’m very conscious of taking care of my body and my energy so I can show up and do the work I want to do in the world. That’s when I knew I wanted to create this series, because you don’t often get to see the “nitty gritty” of what goes into outward success, and I know burnout and exhaustion are things you’ve probably experienced while building your business too.

In this 5-part “Superhuman Entrepreneur” series, I am sharing the behind-the-scenes of working with my team of doctors to optimize my health so that as we get ready to head into a new year you’ll be able to make some changes to boost your energy and overall well-being too. It feels really raw and vulnerable to to share this footage with you, but I feel it’s so important that we start a discussion around our well-being as entrepreneurs and don’t ignore our health on our quest to be successful.

My intuition made it loud and clear that I needed to share everything my health team had me do to recover from burnout, optimize my health, increase productivity and creative output, and boost my energy like never before. I know this is going to serve you.

I invite you to join me in this very personal journey, on what it takes to become a Superhuman Entrepreneur:

To build on what you’ll learn throughout this series, I’ve created a downloadable “Superhuman Entrepreneur” journal designed to help you mindfully move through each day, by tracking your daily health and nourishment practices, and to help you create greater alignment — mind, body, and soul — with your heart’s intentions each step of the way. This journal is free to our community of subscribers.

(If you haven’t watched the first 2 episodes yet, you can catch part 1 where we help you find focus and start taking action by clicking here; and part 2 where we show you how to get the support you need by clicking here.)

Today we’re going to share our top 5 “big picture” strategies for carving out more creative time for yourself. Plus, we’re giving you a free BONUS resource, “Your 2×5 Plan,” based on the same goal-setting system I use every year to set myself up for major growth and big wins. (You’ll find your download link farther down in this email.)

Entrepreneurs are some of the most creative people on the planet – they’ve broken out of the mold to find new solutions to problems and explore work in a brand new way. But as a result, even if you’re set on fire with ideas and inspiration, it can feel impossible to get things done.

Join us for today’s video, where we’ll share 5 strategies to make creative time in your business:

Be sure to grab today’s implementation download! Because inspiration without action is kinda meaningless.

Now is a great time to restructure the last quarter of 2016 to use the next 3 months to reach your big goals and carve out more creative time for yourself. With this week’s free worksheet, I’ll help you create a 2×5 plan, which is a version of the same 5×5 I use every year to set up my businesses for major growth and success.

http://shetakesontheworld.com/business-support/#respondWed, 21 Sep 2016 12:26:00 +0000http://shetakesontheworld.com/?p=16844We’re back today with our second installment of our 3-part series on implementation, featuring Conquer Club Community Manager (and in-house systems expert) Kelly Azevedo, founder of She’s Got Systems.

In the first episode of this series, Kelly and I helped you find focus and start taking action (and if you haven’t seen part 1 yet, you can catch it here.)

In today’s episode we’re going to talk about what to do when you get stuck or frustrated – how to find the support you need. Plus, we’re giving you a free BONUS resource, 25 Awesome Apps + Websites For Automating Your Biz.

When you’re working in a corporate job, support is easy to take for granted; you have a manager, colleagues in the cubicle next door and even mentors to help you grow.

As an entrepreneur none of that support is built in, but it’s even more important. When you’re feeling uncertain, stuck or frustrated it’s easy to get distracted by bright, shiny, objects. And this is when you need support the most.

Join us for today’s video, where we’ll show you 3 (pretty unusual) ways to get the support you need:

The Conquer Club Member Spotlight

With a new implementation series for She Takes on the World underway, we’re also debuting a new feature to showcase members from our Conquer Club who are taking action and getting incredible results. This week we’re meeting meeting Victoria Klein (aka VK), founder of Behind The Boss Mask.

“I help passionately ambitious entrepreneurs end the hustle and grind/burnout cycle to create the success and freedom they dream of, via mentorship, a podcast, speaking and being a guest expert.

For years though, I struggled with staying focused. Since joining the Conquer Club, I’ve learned how to narrow down what was most important in my business and create a realistic plan for getting it done.

The Conquer Club has changed how I envision being an entrepreneur, both professionally and personally. I have gotten clients from the group, but most importantly, I’ve got a renewed sense of purpose, focus, and made friends that I’ll have for the rest of my life.

My biggest accomplishment in the Conquer Club so far was launching my podcast in April 2016. I had thought about doing a podcast for years, and I finally got the courage to go for it. The entire Conquer Club was immensely supportive and I’ve had a number of the ladies on my show already. As the show continues to help more and more entrepreneurs, I’ll always know that my confidence to finally make it happen came from the Conquer Club.”

Like Victoria, are there big dreams and goals you feel you could accomplish if you had more support? The Conquer Club could be what you’re looking for. Click here to learn more and be the first to find out when we open the doors to enrollment in the Class of 2017.

I hope you find inspiration in this post to help you conquer any overwhelm you might be feeling this week. Be sure to leave a comment below and let us know what tasks you’re struggling with, or what you plan to automate after watching this episode. We’d love to support you here.

Love + Success,

http://shetakesontheworld.com/business-focus/#commentsWed, 07 Sep 2016 12:00:45 +0000http://shetakesontheworld.com/?p=16811Happy September! I always get fired up in September. It’s one of my favorite months. I spent the last couple weeks of August settling into my new Los Angeles home, and taking long strolls along the Santa Monica beachfront. My partner snapped this amazing shot on one of our walks:

If I was in my Canadian home, I’d be switching my closet over to fall clothes, sipping pumpkin spice lattes, and embracing the cooler weather as I time to push forward on our biggest projects. I was a little worried September wouldn’t feel the same here in the endless summer that is California but sure enough, when the first of the month rolled in so did my September energy surge and I’ve been on a roll implementing all kinds of stuff in our business.

At She Takes on the World and in our signature incubator The Conquer Club, we are all about helping entrepreneurs actually take action and implement because let’s be honest, inspiration without implementation is kinda meaningless! That’s why today I’m excited to kick off a brand new series I’ve created for you with our Conquer Club Community Manager Kelly Azevedo.

In this first installment we’re taking a look at we like to call “The Pinterest Problem” – that feeling of being over-inspired that you get when you’ve been browsing Pinterest for an hour (or five!!).

Just looking at ideas feels like you’re making progress, but in reality…you haven’t gotten a Single. Thing. Done. Can you relate?

Today we’re going to help you swim through that sea of over-inspiration and teach you 3 important strategies to find your focus and start taking action on what really matters:

The Conquer Club Member Spotlight

With a new implementation series for She Takes on the World underway, we’re also debuting a new feature to showcase members from our Conquer Club who are taking action and getting incredible results. This week we’re meeting Jul’s Arthur, founder of Jul’s Arthur Organizing.

“I’m on a mission to help women simplify their lives and businesses, so they have more calm and time to create lives that fulfill them, not overwhelm them. I want to help women know deeply they are enough, and don’t need more ‘stuff’ or information to be enough.

While I knew what I was passionate about, I lacked a community of supportive and knowledgeable like-minded women, and I was afraid to reach out for help and support from others in growing my business, especially online.

Since joining The Conquer Club, I’ve learned how to embrace my fear and keep taking action. I don’t feel totally alone and lost in a vacuum of overwhelm. I’ve launched a new website, created multiple money revenue streams, and connected with other awesome women entrepreneurs around the globe.

Though I’ve often wanted to give up, this community of caring, real, involved, and supportive women has had my back. I’m so proud that I’ve stayed the course and pushed through my fear.”

Jul’s is a great example of what can happen when you push ahead in spite of your obstacles, and consistently keep working towards your goals. I hope this episode and worksheet will help YOU to find your focus and take action on what matters most.

I hope this episode helps you refocus on what matters most. I’d love for you to share in the comments below what you’re going to move onto your Later List or Biz Backburner Notebook and what you’re recommitting to achieving before the end of the year. We’re here to support you in making your big business dreams a reality.

September, bring it on!

We know it can be a scary prospect to make yourself seen, but when you’re trying to gain media attention and traction with your audience…it’s a must-do.

In this episode, we’re going to help you get into a confidence mindset and show you how to own your expertise, your credibility, and your value. Then we’re going to walk you through the next step – how to go about really putting yourself out there. Let’s get started!

http://shetakesontheworld.com/5-reasons-you-need-to-create-an-online-course/#commentsMon, 08 Aug 2016 14:14:37 +0000http://shetakesontheworld.com/?p=16778Whether you’re a service based business like a Website developer, a graphic designer,or a coach, or you run a brick-and-mortar business, you can skyrocket your business to a whole new level by sharing your expertise through an online course or membership.

While there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing one-on-one work, I’m going to share with you my top 5 reasons you should consider adding an online course or membership to your offerings.

1. Make a bigger impact

This is the main reason I’ve added online courses to my offerings. Building an online course or membership allows you to share your expertise and work with many more people than you could reach one-on-one. Some of these people you would not be able to work with one-on-one, either because they can’t afford you or because you’re booked solid. That was one of my frustrations; it’s not easy to say no to someone because they can’t afford you and I wanted to find a way to help them.

2. Scale and automate your business

Packaging your expertise and offering it in the form of an online course or membership is a great way to leverage your knowledge and make the most out of your experience and skills.

It allows you to be in full control on how you want to deliver it, either live or self-study/automated.

With an online course or membership, you get to concentrate all your assets and knowledge on one platform that will only get better with time as you continue to add more content and build a stronger community.

3. Build a stable recurring income

Offering an online course or membership will allow you to escape the hamster wheel of having to constantly look for new clients every month. You can finally focus on engaging with your members and producing more content that solves problems for them.

With a membership model with a monthly or yearly fee, you can get a more stable and predictable income and focus your energy on helping them get results, adding more members, and building more amazing content.

4. Less stress, more flexibility

By ditching the trade of time for dollars you can take back full control of your business and work on your own terms. You choose when you work, where you work, and what you work on.

Building a successful online course or membership site still requires work but once you’ve set up your platform and built your core content, you can focus on helping your students/members consume your content and get results by building an engaging community that supports each other.

5. Build an engaging tribe that will continue to buy from you

While receiving one-on-one mentoring and instruction helps you make huge steps forward in your business, belonging to a community of entrepreneurs that get you, support you, and encourage you is critical for long-term success. And, I strongly believe our success as entrepreneurs starts with the success of our clients and members.

That’s why it’s important that we provide them with a learning platform, whether it is an online course or a membership, where they can not only learn but have fun and feel supported to get through the next phase of their business.

Successful clients will consume your content and get results.

They will talk about you to their friends and provide great testimonials that you can use to bring in more people in front of your offer.

Now I’d like to hear from you: If you’ve already developed an online course or membership site, what do you think are the benefits to doing this? And if you are just now starting to think about packaging your services into a course, what is your biggest question about doing that? Let me know in a comment below!

Nikki’s known online as The Communication Stylist® and creator of A Course About Copy® and she’s on a mission to help entrepreneurs communicate with more clarity and confidence.

In today’s episode we’re talking about your “About” page, and practicing the art of “strategic self-disclosure.” That means connecting through stories and sharing more about yourself as a person, but with a clear purpose.

Here’s a simple fact: People aren’t going to trust you unless they like you. They can’t like you unless they know you. And they can’t know you unless you tell them some things about yourself.

While we entrepreneurs can pride ourselves on our creativity and quick thinking, this is a question that often stops us in our tracks:

“So what do you do for work, anyway?”

As an entrepreneur, having a handy quick-fire response that concisely explains who you are, what you do, and who you help is a priceless tool to have in your arsenal.

But a lot of entrepreneurs struggle with that kind of concision because – more often than not – we feel what we do requires some extra explaining.

In today’s episode of She Takes on the World TV I’m going to help you narrow down your message into the most clear, concise version, so you can share what you do with ease. You’ll also have the chance to download a free worksheet to help you take action on what you learn in this episode (more on that below).

I’d love for you to leave a comment below and let me know what you come up with.

The girl who didn’t ruffle any feathers, or say anything to cause drama, or do anything rebellious.

Like many women, I grew up with the message that success and happiness come when you say all the right things and make sure everybody else approves of you. And while I’ve always considered myself an ambitious leader, deep inside I couldn’t stand it if others didn’t approve of me.

When it comes to growing our businesses, holding on to our Inner Nice Girls doesn’t serve us. It keeps us small and safe and scared, which limits how much of an impact we can have on our clients, and the world.

So who is the Inner Nice Girl? She is the part of us that:

…is scared to say or do the wrong thing in case others criticize us
…is more concerned with being liked and approved of, than being in alignment with our truth
…doesn’t want to take risks in our businesses, in case we fail
…suffers with perfectionism, which holds us back from putting our work out into the world
…fears being controversial or outspoken because of what others might think of us

In short, the Inner Nice Girl is the agreeable and pleasing mask that we put on, in the hopes that being nice will bring us success.

But in the loud and busy environment of the online business world, the Inner Nice Girl holds us back from standing out and being heard, which in turn limits our visibility, our ability to attract clients, to make money, and to have the impact we are here to make.

In the post I talked about how the rise of what I call the “6-figure coaches” is failing entrepreneurs by teaching cookie-cutter methods for making money fast, instead of helping entrepreneurs to create long-term, sustainable success through authentic and values-based business building.

In order to write that post I had to set aside my own Inner Nice Girl, because the article strongly called out the practices of many coaches that I felt were manipulative and bordering on unethical.

My Inner Nice Girl tried to warn me that publishing that article would be a huge mistake. She feared that people would criticize me, ostracize me, stop liking me, and no longer want to work with me.

But in actuality, that blog post had the complete opposite effect.

In half a day it had gone viral, bringing me more visibility and positive engagement than I have had since I started my business in 2014.

Within a day it had been shared more than 2k times on Facebook, and within a week it jumped to more than 5k shares.

Publishing that post taught me that we need to let go of our Inner Nice Girls if we want to really grow our businesses and begin to establish ourselves as thought-leaders in our fields.

While you may not “go viral” (is that ever the aim, anyway?!), letting go of your Inner Nice Girl and being more bold and open about what you really want to say in your business can help you to gain more:

Subscribers: People who really resonate with your message, your values and what you are sharing. My viral blog post brought in 200 new subscribers in less than a week.

Media Opportunities: Opportunities to gain more visibility and credibility through interviews and guest posts. As a result of my blog post, I have appeared on 3 podcast shows to share my views on business building.

Clients: Not just any clients, but “kindred clients” who really vibe with you and what your business is about. My blog post has brought in kindred clients for my signature 1:1 coaching program, and my group mastermind program. It has also given me a waiting list of 30 new potential clients.

Opportunities for collaboration: Opportunities to partner with other entrepreneurs and thought-leaders who resonate with your message and can help you to gain more visibility. My viral blog post gave me the opportunity to be invited as a guest speaker in my first online summit.

Engagement: More engagement from your readers and your community – from blog post comments to Facebook group discussions. My viral post received over 100 blog comments and has brought in more members to my private Facebook community, as well as more engagement within the group itself.

When we let go of our Inner Nice Girls and courageously speak our authentic truth, we naturally attract more visibility and engagement from people who resonate with us.

So if there’s something that you believe needs to change, or stop, or be improved or be somehow different in your industry, now is the time to stand up and unapologetically share your opinions and your solutions.

Blog about it. Speak about it. Share your thoughts on your website and on social media – and by all means, we’d love to hear about it in a comment below this blog post too!

While you might get underneath some people’s skin by calling out the elephants in the room, your ideal clients will thank you for it.
